Core offering

Kansas City Heart Rhythm Institute provides specialized electrophysiology care for patients with heart rhythm disorders, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias, and syncope. The institute offers diagnostic electrophysiology testing, catheter-based heart ablation procedures, left atrial appendage closure, and implantation of pacemakers, defibrillators, and insertable cardiac monitors. Care is delivered through six Centers of Excellence at Overland Park Regional Medical Center within the HCA Midwest Health system.

Product overview

Kansas City Heart Rhythm Institute offers a comprehensive, integrated approach to cardiac electrophysiology care through six Centers of Excellence (Atrial Fibrillation & Atrial Flutter, Ambulatory Cardiac Arrhythmia Monitoring, Cardiac Rhythm Devices, Supraventricular Arrhythmias, Syncope & Inherited/Congenital Arrhythmias, and Ventricular Arrhythmias). The institute provides diagnostic services including electrophysiology testing and treatments including heart ablation, left atrial appendage closure, and arrhythmia management. Digital patient services include a secure Patient Portal for medical records access and online bill pay. As part of HCA Midwest Health, the institute also hosts the annual Kansas City Heart Rhythm Symposium for medical education.

Brands

• Centers of Excellence: Specialized treatment centers including Atrial Fibrillation & Atrial Flutter, Ambulatory Cardiac Arrhythmia Monitoring, Cardiac Rhythm Devices, Supraventricular Arrhythmias, Syncope & Inherited/Congenital Arrhythmias, and Ventricular Arrhythmias.
• Kansas City Heart Rhythm Symposium

Products and services

• Atrial Fibrillation & Atrial Flutter Center Specialized clinical center focused on diagnosing and treating atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, the most common types of heart rhythm disorders, for adult patients.
• Ambulatory Cardiac Arrhythmia Monitoring Center Clinical center providing continuous and extended heart rhythm monitoring services for patients to detect and diagnose irregular heartbeat patterns, including insertable cardiac monitor implants.
• Cardiac Rhythm Devices Center Clinical center specializing in implanted cardiac devices including pacemakers, defibrillators, and insertable cardiac monitors for heart rhythm management.
• Supraventricular Arrhythmias Center Clinical center dedicated to treating supraventricular arrhythmias — rapid heart rhythms originating above the ventricles.
• Syncope & Inherited/Congenital Arrhythmias Center Clinical center focused on diagnosing and managing fainting episodes and heart rhythm disorders with genetic or congenital origins.
• Ventricular Arrhythmias Center Clinical center specializing in treating ventricular arrhythmias — abnormal heart rhythms originating in the heart's lower chambers that can be life-threatening.
• Heart Ablation Minimally invasive catheter-based procedure using radiofrequency or cryotherapy to destroy abnormal heart tissue causing arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and ventricular arrhythmias.
• Left Atrial Appendage Closure (AMULET with Steerable Delivery Sheath) Procedure to seal the left atrial appendage, reducing stroke risk in atrial fibrillation patients who cannot tolerate long-term blood thinner therapy, performed using Abbott's AMULET device and Steerable Delivery Sheath technology.
• Arrhythmia Tests (Electrophysiology Testing) Diagnostic procedures including electrophysiology studies to evaluate heart rhythm disorders and identify abnormal electrical pathways.
• Arrhythmia Treatment (Electrophysiology Treatment) Comprehensive treatment services for heart rhythm disorders including medication management and interventional procedures such as ablation and device implantation.
• Hybrid Sinus Node Sparing Surgery Rare surgical procedure combining electrophysiology and cardiovascular surgical expertise for right-side entry sinus node sparing ablation to treat Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia in patients not responsive to conventional therapy.
• Assert-IQ Insertable Cardiac Monitor Implantation Implantation of Abbott's Assert-IQ insertable cardiac monitor, a small device with sensors implanted under the chest skin that provides constant, real-time monitoring to detect and identify arrhythmias and provide clinically actionable data.
• Patient Portal Secure online platform providing patients access to medical records, appointment scheduling, and communication with healthcare providers at Kansas City Heart Rhythm Institute.
• Online Bill Pay Digital payment service allowing patients to pay medical bills online through a secure platform integrated with the institute's billing system.
• Kansas City Heart Rhythm Symposium Annual international medical education event hosted by Kansas City Heart Rhythm Institute for electrophysiologists, cardiologists, and cardiac surgeons, providing continuing medical education on heart rhythm disorders.
